Hi all, Don't know if this is allowed but wanted to point this out.
On auctionninja.com site they have a Rare Pink Sparkle 16"floor. Search drum to fine this bid is 50.00 with about 4 days to go...
I have nothing to do with this site. Just wanted to pass it on...

Don't forget the 18% buyer's premium. Serial number suggests 1968.
I also noted the 18% buyer's premium. What does that mean? As to the date of the drum, I concur. Sparkling Pink Pearl was long gone by then, making this floor tom even more desirable and possibly pushing up the final bid. I'll be watching!

Sparkling Pink was still shown as late as the '67 catalog.
